Happy Ficlet Friday! This is part 7 of the Pizza Run Series.

This chapter lives here.
Full TOC here.

Any mistakes are my own, and I don't mind having them pointed out, since I'll plan to submit this to the archive. And of course, any other comments are really just encouragement to keep writing the next part.

Thanks to Michael for the unofficial, post-post beta. notworthy

I think I've added in a few twists an turns here and in the next couple chapters to keep everyone on their toes. And you guys -- I finally figured out the ending. Well, I figured out the epilogue. And the idea is adorable. (And unlike most of my stories, no one gets shot! lol) The next two of these are written and I'm planning to post the next two Fridays. I'll likely take August off to post the location challenge, then come back to Pizza Run in September, when I'll hopefully have written a couple more (unless the location challenges takes me out - which is looking like the most likely outcome at this point!).

Thanks to everyone reading along on this one! I really appreciate that so many people are having fun with this one!

Looking forward to this summer's Location Challenge! Looks like stories are due around August 1st, and then polls open for voting!

And don't forget about the 2026 fundraiser! Head over to the Fundraising page to donate or consider adding a story to the Keepsake Collection fundraising drive!
